ITSD Tap (Examination Class)
Tap dancing is seen in many stage and film musicals. This rhythmic form of dance has its roots in African, Irish and American folk dance. Dancers wear special tap shoes to give a distinctive sound as they beat out intricate rhythms using the metal plates of the base of their shoes.
Our Tap classes promote coordination, confidence and listening skills in a fun, energised environment.

My 8 year old son has been attending drama classes at SPAA for a term now and couldn't wait for the next term. He enjoys the course and we can see that he has grown in confidence and feels comfortable on stage or speaking up in front of a crowd and I believe the SPAA classes have contributed enormously to this. A welcoming, fun atmosphere and carefully curated sessions all add up to an invaluable experience for children of all ages. Many thanks to you and the SPAA team.
